MAYOR HEWITT has made an attempt
to put in operation one of his schemes for
the amelioration OF the laboring mans
condition and on a very large scale, too.
The report comes from a very prominent
Knight of Labor in the busy manufactur
ing town of Trenton, New Jersey, where
the great iron works of Mayer Hewitt, OF
New York city, are located. 1t is moth.
ing less than the fact that Mayor Hewitt's
iron manufacturing firm stimulated by the
progress of events, the cravings of labor,
and the condition of industry, recently
made q formal offer TO turn over the
whole plant and establishment to the
work people, to be managed by them
selves, for their own advantage, upon a
cooperative basis. He and his partners
were ready to relieve themselves, from all
control and authority over the Trenton
Iron Works and deliver them to the men
In his service, upon condition that the
firm is guaranteed the payment of 9 per
cent. annua interest upon the capital in
vested. The majority of the workers
who have 1t in their power to become
their own capitalists are members of the
order of the Knights Of Labor, and the
proposition has for some time past
been under consideration at Trenton.
The general sentiment is strongly in ia.
vor Of It's acceptance, though Of course
there is some difficulty about furnishing
the required guarantee. II matters car
be properly arranged, and the transfer CT
fected, the people will see n of the mos
remarkable experiments eve undertaken
in the world of modern industry-nearl,
1000 workmen managing the entire bust
ness Of one Of the largest iron manufac
tories in the United States, choosing thei
own directors, selecting the heads Of d.
partments, appointing the foremen an
assigning themselves their respective d.
ties, with the wages thereof. If this ca
be done harmoniously. and for the benz
fit of all concerned, the Trenton Co-operi
tive Iron Works, now the property {
Cooper, Hewitt & Co., will attract the a
%tention of capitalists, wage earners on
philosophers oil over the land. n

BLAINE's HAIRMA
National Convention 1884, General j. u
Henderson-what He Thinks of Re-
publican Prospects In 1sss-Mr.
Blaine's Candidacy.

PITTsBuRG, May 12-General j. b.
Henderson, of st. Louis, chairman of the
last Republican National Convention.
speaking to-day at the Union Depot of
Republican prospects for 1883, said: I'm
order to win next year we must nominate
a man who is able to carry the State of
New.York. | do not think that Mr..
Blaine is able to carry New York. l said
to him some time before the last National
Convention: Blaine, l do not think you
can carry New York. With the infiueu-
ces at work against you there among So
called Republicans. combined with the
natural Democratic strength, l feel that
your chances Of success are small 1
think that Mr.. Blaine was not so deeply
interested in his candidacy and would
willingly have given place to some other
Republican had it not been for the in
f~luences that operated upon him and
upon the convention"
is Mugwumpery dead in this coun.
tryI'
THE Partially of Mr.. Cleveland has
kept warm the nest egg. and with an al.
most unbroken front the Mugwumps of
1884 will face Mr.. Blaine If he is nomi-
mated in 1888, and in my opinion they
will be more formidable than they were
four years ago. They are the most dan
gerous of the Democratic allies. Allied
to the Mugwumps. but not identified with
them, are the disaffected Republicans,
who are not q few. These men are
against Mr.. Blaine and will not supper,
him, even to maintain the integrity OF
their party organization. On the other
hand it is true that Mr.. Blaine can carry
more irish votes than any other Repub
lican who may be nominated. This fac
was demonstrated in 1884. But 1t wa.
J also demonstrated that this sccretion Of
votes was inferior to the secession of dis
! affected voters. Mr.. Blaine Is amagnif
cent Republican. He is q thorough Re
publican, n who has done valiant ser
|, vice for his party. | think, too, that II
he sees next year that the opposition Il
him then bears any relation to that Of
1884 he will embargo the efforts of hi
friends by a positive refusal to allow tn,
use of his name. Mr.. Blaine was assur
J ed the last time by his friends that h,
could be elected without New York; tina
he could carry Virginia, West Virginia

Mr.. Blaine or any other Republican
could not then carry any one of thes,

THE Philadelphia Record says; The
Anarchists, fed fat on American bread
and beef, have considerably postponed
until the year 1889 their uprising against
existing social and political order. This
humane arrangement gives everybody
timely warning. Besides, II will enable
the country to hold one more general
political election-then will come the
Anarchist deluge. 1t is estimated by
their organ, The Red that the number of
Anarchists in the country by 1889 will be
500. 900 Of whom there will be $4,000 in
New York aud 25, 900 in Chicago. These
are too many mad men to be out Of the
asylum all at once; but, fortunately, by
1889 the American people will number
about 90, 0O0, 900, and in New York and
Chicago there will doubtless be lamp
posts and rope enough for the occasion.
II ever the Anarchists should rise In this
country, as some of their crazy leaders
threaten, they will rise but once.

who1esale Cruelty to animals.

We suppose that no winter passes with
op+ causing q shudder in the breasts of all
right minded people when they read in
the newspapers that thousands of cattle
have persisted from starvation on the Yves
tern plains. This particular form of
cruelty to animals has seemed to be and
probably is beyond the reach of law and
of local public opinion. Nevertheless the
recent national convention of humane
societies at Pittsburg took the matter up
and delivered their opinions upon it in
very proper terms. They say truly that
nobody has a moral right to bring into
existence a greater number of cattle than
he can reasonably expect to find food and
some kind of shelter for in winter. Yet
the practice is to estimate for a certain
percentage of loss by lingering torture,
and then trust to the chances of getting
through the winter with better showing
than the estimate. This is cruelty to
animals reduced to system, Acts which
would be severely punished if committed
in the older states and visited with loss
of social consideration are the principal
trade and calling of large territories
The suggestion of the association was
that since the ranges are mostly on public
lands, unsettled by the emigrant and still
less under the direct and immediate con-
troll of congress, it should be made unlaw-
full for any one to range cattle on public
lands without making provision for them
in winter by food and shelter.-New York
Evening Post
